We’re off to Sint Maarten to get our standing rigging replaced and to pick up our new AB RIB!
Over the years our old Avon 3.1 Hypalon RIB suffered a multitude of problems, but by far the two most serious were having the rubber coating of the Hypalon fabric delaminate from the canvas substrate below, and a constant and unrepairable leak between the upper and lower fiberglass shell, which would add increasing amounts of weight to the RIB unless hauled and drained regularly.
At root, it was time for a new RIB. And for this we chose Outdoor World in Dutch Sint Maarten, who were the local AB and Yamaha dealers.
Hope you enjoy!
